Select all of the true statements.Multi-select Choices:(A) 1×10−2 is 50 times as much as 2×10−4.(B) 8×102 is 0.02 times as much as 4×104.(C) 3×10−3 is 6 times as much as 5×10−2.(D) 8×109 is 500 times as much as 501.
Q. Select all of the true statements.Multi-select Choices:(A) 1×10−2 is 50 times as much as 2×10−4.(B) 8×102 is 0.02 times as much as 4×104.(C) 3×10−3 is 6 times as much as 5×10−2.(D) 8×109 is 500 times as much as 501.
Check (A): To check (A), compare 1×10−2 and 2×10−4. Calculate 50 times 2×10−4 to see if it equals 1×10−2. 50×(2×10−4)=100×10−4=1×10−2. So, (A) is true.
Check (B): For (B), compare 8×102 and 4×104. Calculate 0.02×4×104 to see if it equals 8×102.0.02×(4×104)=0.08×104=8×102.So, (B) is true.
Check (C): To check (C), compare 3×10−3 and 5×10−2. Calculate 6 times 5×10−2 to see if it equals 3×10−3. 6×(5×10−2)=30×10−2. This does not equal 3×10−3, so (C) is false.
Check (D): For (D), compare 8×109 and 4×106. Calculate 2,000×4×106 to see if it equals 8×109.2,000×(4×106)=8,000×106=8×109.So, (D) is true.
